@milessabin how did you envision this being implemented? I assumed the implementation would check for universal equality with the value of the Witness
of the singleton type, but it doesn't look like that works. assertEquals(Witness(0).narrow, 0)
results in expected: <shapeless.SingletonTypesTests$fresh$macro$3$1@60aff886> but was:<0>
. Am I thinking about this wrong?

@ceedubs Umm ... did you mean Witness(0).value
?

@milessabin ah yes that's what I meant. That makes my assertEquals
example pass.
Unfortunately, I still can't get my implementation to work. It seems like it should be straightforward so I'm probably doing something silly. Maybe I'll let someone else take this one :)

Do you have a branch or a gist we could take a look at?

To be honest I don't have a firm understanding of singletons and witnesses; they still seem like magic to me. So I'm probably doing something quite foolish, but with risk of embarrassing myself, here it goes.
I had added this to SingletonOps
:
def extract[V >: T](v: V): Option[T] = if (v == witness.value) Some(witness.value) else None
However, I haven't succeeded in getting this to return anything other than None
. Also type refinements seem to be causing trouble when trying to check that the return type matches an Option of the singleton type.

The following works for me,
scala> def cast(w: Witness)(x: Any): Option[w.T] = if(x == w.value) Some(w.value) else None
cast: (w: shapeless.Witness)(x: Any)Option[w.T]
scala> cast(0)(1: Any)
res0: Option[Int(0)] = None
scala> cast(0)(0: Any)
res1: Option[Int(0)] = Some(0)
I was thinking that we should have Typeable
instances for types with an available implicit Witness
, and then some additional typeable
syntax that adds something like foo.cast(<literal>)
where the literal singleton type is extracted from the inferred Witness
as in cast
above.
